I'm on the fence about this. I guess it opens up for more jokes, but I don't want to learn everything again. I'd miss the Freeman we've been dealing with so far, even if it is the same one.

I agree.

I like Shephard's Mind-the "Ohhhhhh CRAAAAAP!" when he saw the mortar had me in stitches.

Chell's Mind was actually the first Mind that I saw, and it didn't disappoint. The psychotic ramblings of our protagonist should be the second most famous Mind (in the place of Shephard's) Too bad it seems to have ended.

^Cyh is actually busy with a bunch of stuff. Last I heard, she had to study for MCAT, a virus broke her computer (meaning she lost all progress on Episode 6), and other stuff that's keeping her busy.

Good, he's starting to remember. Hopefully he'll turn a corner and see a Gargantua and it'll all come back to him.

Anyone remember how this area is passed through normally?

Those vats? They're a platforming segment.

[up]Yeah but how do you get through the locked doors in the game. Can you fit through the window in the game?

The area where you can see them?

It looks like you can crouch-jump over the guard rails. As a general rule about game maps: If it's textured, chances are you're meant to go there.

It has that "Running Out Of Time" monster from Bubble Bobble on it, I think.

What it means, I don't quite know.

Double-post, but this is the last episode that Ross will be making at a weekly rate, as he wants to catch up with other things such as Civil Protection. He won't forget about it, though:

I don't care if he has to come up with some really contrived reason for Freeman to get out of this part of Black Mesa, I just want this part to be over.

God, I love this series SO MUCH and it only gets better and better.

I think Ross Scott wants to see someone draw Freeman's alien idea.

No, he gets that a lot, apparently.

Also, the current progress chart states that work on the next Civil Protection is at :| and that work on the Mystery Episode thing is at :(.

Sadly, Ross recently got sick again.

Oh wow, he killed a guard. And now he's going on about how he'll kill everyone.

He just finally snapped. Hit his Sanity Event Horizon.

Yeah, he's never done that before.

I mean, he didn't even give the guard time to say anything.

Loved that part where he just pops around the corner and blasts the security guard

it is a little suspicious though, a security guard standing in a hallway that the soldier that just tried to kill you had to have passed through. It is sort of justified
